Time Out says

The East End’s pride and joy: a king among caffs.

If ever proof were needed that all caffs are not equal, this Grade-II listed greasy spoon on Bethnal Green Road is it. The food may not be much more than reasonably above-average caff grub, but the atmosphere and decor are second to none. Opened in 1900, and still in the hands of the same family, Pellicci’s is an east London landmark. It has an almost opulent feel, harking back to a time when caff culture was king. Chrome-lined Vitrolite panels line the outside, and the wood-panelled interior is filled with Formica tables and art deco touches. Food is still prepared with pride every day by Mama Maria – queen of the kitchen since 1961. The kids, Anna and Nevio Junior, serve it up with a wink, a smile and as much banter as you can handle. Fry-ups are first rate, and the fish and chips, daily grills and Italian specials aren’t half bad either. Desserts, from bread pudding to Portuguese pasteis de nata, are worth a punt too. But it’s the vibrant welcome, served with a healthy helping of mickey-taking, that makes the place so special.

E Pellicci says
We are an authentic Italian family cafe established in 1900, focusing on providing freshly prepared, home cooked dishes since we opened our doors over 100 years ago.

All dishes are available all day, whether it be a freshly cooked breakfast or pancakes with freshly squeezed orange juice to a homemade steak pie served with hand chopped chips or a rich spinach and ricotta cannelloni.

We serve great quality Arabica bean coffee and have an alcohol license too!

Our beautiful interior, created in the early 1940’s by family friend and local genius carpenter Achille Capocci was awarded Grade 2 listing status in 2007.
